We stood before our friends and pledged eternal love
To have and to hold
We both meant every word and spoke of one above
Love could not grow cold

Then I found myself so many nights
With time my only friend
And I only saw it in your eyes
Too late to make amends darling

Time can be a healer or time can divide
I never meant for anyone to take you from my side
But I'm just a man (just a man)
And it comes down to this
I was just too weak to resist

If only I had know I'd cause you so much pain
I would not have strayed
And tho' I promise you I'll never fall again baby
I must lie in this bed that I made

And tho' I'm hurting you I swear it was
The last thing on my mind
And I found myself on my own
One too many times darling

Time can be a healer or time can divide
I never meant for anyone to take you from my side
But I'm just a man (just a man)
And it comes down to this
I was just too weak to resist
